策略性溫室擴建階段
Little Leaf Farms 啟用新建20英畝溫室
Little Leaf Farms 為美國其中一個規模最大、增長最快的包裝沙律品牌,已於田納西州 Manchester 開始啟用一座新的 20 英畝溫室,作為一個最終可擴展至 80 英畝的更大型園區的首個階段。公司因應零售商及消費者對其環控葉菜產品的強勁需求,已加快有關發展時間表。
Little Leaf Farms 的新設施全面運作後,將成為全球產量最高的室內葉菜生產基地,採用先進水耕系統、天然陽光、經淨化的雨水,以及自動化播種、種植、收成及包裝流程,藉此消除人手與植物的直接接觸。公司亦採用水淨化技術以清除病原體,並於整個生產過程中避免使用殺蟲劑、除草劑或殺真菌劑。
該品牌強調「從源頭潔淨」(Clean From the Start)的理念,透過淨化水及杜絕人手接觸,直接回應公眾對田間種植葉菜相關食源性疾病爆發日益提高的關注。
英文原文
Little Leaf Farms, one of the largest and fastest-growing packaged salad brands in the United States, has begun commissioning a new 20-acre greenhouse in Manchester, Tennessee, which represents the first phase of a larger campus that can eventually expand to 80 acres. The company has accelerated this timeline due to strong demand from both retailers and consumers for its controlled-environment leafy greens.
Little Leaf Farms' new facility, which will become the highest-volume indoor leafy green operation in the world once fully operational, uses advanced hydroponic systems, natural sunlight, purified rainwater, and automated seeding, growing, harvesting, and packaging processes. These serve to eliminate direct human contact with the plants. The company also employs water purification to remove pathogens and avoids the use of pesticides, herbicides, or fungicides throughout production.
The brand’s emphasis on a "Clean From the Start" approach, with purified water and no human handling, directly responds to growing public awareness of foodborne illness outbreaks associated with field-grown leafy greens.
